Matamshi ya Rais Yahya Jammeh wa Gambia kutawala milele!

[Hofstede]

Nikionacho mimi ni matumizi ya lugha tu yamekuwa "wrongly interpreted".

Ni binaadam yupi awezae kuishi miaka hiyo? Ukisoma vizuri utaona kuwa huyu amemaanisha ni Mungu tu ajuwae uongozi wake utasita lini.

Siyo 'wrongly interpreted' ni kwamba majibu yake yapo clear kama majibu ya judge anayemuhukumu mtuhumiwa mwenye miaka 30 kwenda jela mika 150 consecutively not concurently kwa makosa matatu aliyotiwa nayo hatiani.

You simply summarise it as 'LIFE'. Huyu rais ambaye pia ni mganga wa kienyeji anayesema anatibu UKIMWI kama babu wa Samunge alichosema hapo nikuwa yeye ni 'LIFE PRESIDENT'

 

[figganigga]

hapo alimaanisha atakua rais maisha yake yote. mia

 

[Kinyungu]

Mumezoea hivyo! .Wapi kwenye mtawala muislamu ambapo hamjafanya hivyo. Hata Eritrea nako harakati ni hizo hizo.

Kwani Eritrea ni nchi ya Kiislam? Au hata rais wake ni Muislam hata watake kum-gadafi?

The Gambia's President Yahya Jammeh has told the BBC that he will rule for "one billion years", if God wills.
He said critics who accused him of winning last month's elections through intimidation and fraud could "go to hell".
The West African regional body Ecowas said the electorate had been "cowed by repression".
Mr Jammeh, who took power in a coup in 1994, was re-elected with 72% of the figures, official figures show.
The 46 year old said he did not fear a fate similar to Egypt's ousted President Hosni Mubarak or killed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
"My fate is in the hands of almighty Allah," he told the BBC's Focus on Africa programme.


My Take:...Hivi Africa tunapokuwa na Marais Vichaa kama huyu tutegemee nini, Hii ni Dharau ya hali ya juu kabisa Mungu epusha mbali kauli kama hizi zisitolewe hapa TZ

tatizo la viongozi wa africa,

 

[Mwita25]

He at least has tried to be candid about his stance and willingness to cling to power unlike many of his African counterparts who pretend to be cultivating democracy under the guise of limited presidential terms while in reality they are not. Africa needs this sort of leaders who are devoid of pretences but rather can speak their minds regardless of how much disapproval their message might be met by people. What's important for him, afterall, is the acceptance accorded by his voters to him and not what the outside world speak critical about his leadership.

Anna Mkapa alijimilikisha majengo ya NBC kupitia taasisi yake ya fursa sawa kwa wote, Kikwete anamgawia rafiki yake Sinclair resources zetu sisi wenyewe tukiwa hoi. Badala ya kuangalia haya, tunakimbilia ya Gambia tuna matatizo gani?

 

[Kiranga]

Rais kasema anachoamini, anaamini mungu, na mungu akitaka hata miaka bilioni moja Yahya Jameh atatawala. Kama wewe kweli nawe unaamini mungu wake huwezi kuona tatizo lolote katika kauli yake.

Kama huamini mungu tu ndiyo una ruhusa kucheka.

Unaona imani ya mungu inavyolea upuuzi?

Gambian president takes 21-year-old as second wife

The Muslim leader of the small west African country, who is 45, has two children with his other wife, Zineb Yahya Jammeh.
Jammeh married Zineb (Photo), a Moroccan, in 1999 following a divorce from his first wife.
Jammeh's new wife, Gambian national Alima Sallah, will be formally known as Lady Alima Yahya Jammeh.
"She is not to be addressed as the First Lady because according to protocol, there can only be one First Lady, and in this case, that is Madam Zineb Yahya Jammeh," the presidency said in a statement.
Jammeh has ruled Gambia for 16 years, and plans to seek a fourth term in 2011 presidential elections.

You can't say he is candid, he is projecting his wishes behind the veil of the wishes of a godhead.

Hakusema "nitatawala miaka hata bilioni moja" amesema "nitatawala miaka hata bilioni moja, mungu akipenda". So much obfuscation for being candid.

We unashangaa hilo wakati mchizi alishasema kagundua dawa ya Ukimwi, kwani Jammeh ana akili nzuri

Gay men and lesbians must leave the country within 24 hours or face "serious consequences," the President of Gambia said on Thursday.
President Yahya Jammeh turned on homosexuals and foreigners in an address at a victory celebration rally in Tallinding.
The Daily Observer reported that the President had issued:
"An ultimatum to homosexuals, drug dealers, thieves and other criminals, to leave The Gambia or face serious consequences if caught.
"The President equally warned all those who harbour such individuals to kick them out of their compounds, noting that a mass patrol will be conducted on the instructions of the IGP and the director of the Gambia Immigration Department to weed bad elements in society.
"Any hotel, lodge or motel that lodges this kind of individuals will be closed down, because this act is unlawful." he said.
"We are in a Muslim dominated country and I will not and shall never accept such individuals in this country."
"He stated that a law is in place regarding this unlawful acts tougher than the Iranian laws and warned those involve in this infamous activities to desist from them."
President Jammeh also claimed that foreigners are taking the benefits of investment and "all stores belonging to Gambians and rented to forigners would be seized."
Gambia, a mostly Muslim country of 1.7 million people, punishes homosexual acts, even in private, with up to seven years in prison.
A former British colony, the country has been ruled by President Jammeh since a bloodless coup in 1994.
Last year he horrified scientists by announcing that he had developed a "miracle cure" for HIV/AIDS.
Hundreds of Gambians lined up to be "cured" by President Jammeh, who treats his patients by rubbing a mysterious herbal paste into their ribcages and then instructing them to swallow a bitter yellow drink, followed by two bananas.
The therapy is administered repeatedly over several weeks.
According to Mr Jammeh, AIDS sufferers are cured within "three to thirty days."
The President announced his alleged cure in January to a gathering of perplexed foreign diplomats.
"Whatever you do there are bound to be skeptics, but I can tell you my method is foolproof," he said.
"Mine is not an argument, mine is a proof. It is a declaration. I can cure AIDS and I will."
Government radio and TV addresses publicised the treatment, which Jammeh provides for free.
It has the backing of the Gambian Health Ministry.
Mr Jammeh refuses to disclose the ingredients of his herbal concoction, saying only that the treatment uses seven plants – "three of which are not from Gambia".
His official website claims that patients have experienced a "marked improvement" in their health as a result of the treatment and scoffs at critics who dispute its efficacy

Dakar - Gambia's president once claimed to have developed a cure for Aids that involved an herbal body rub and bananas. His administration rounded up nearly 1 000 people last year in a witch hunt. And now he may soon have a new title in this tiny West African nation: His majesty.

Tribal chieftains are touring the country to rally support for President Yahya Jammeh's coronation.
"The president has brought development to the country, and for that he deserves to be crowned King of The Gambia," said Junkung Camara, chief of the western region of Foni Brefet. "This is the only way the Gambian people can express our gratitude to a leader who has done a lot for his country."

Like many rulers in this part of Africa, Jammeh, 45, came to power in the wake of a coup. He was elected president two years later, and is currently serving his third elected term in the tiny country surrounded on three sides by Senegal.
If he were crowned king, he could dispense with the formality of elections altogether.

For a ruler who likes to be called His Excellency the President Sheik Professor Alhaji Doctor Yahya Jammeh - identifying himself as a doctor, scholar, and elder, among other honorifics - "king" would suit him well.
"It's image construction," said Abdoulaye Saine, professor of political science at Miami University in Ohio who specialises in Gambian politics. "He's not a scholar, he's not a doctor, he's not a professor. But he covets these titles."
Saine says Jammeh's coronation would give him a new title but would not change anything politically.
"Jammeh is already king," Saine said. "He practically owns the country of Gambia. He controls the press, the opposition, the clergy, and the coffers of the state."

While sub-Saharan Africa has just one remaining absolute monarchy - in the southern African nation of Swaziland - other leaders have tried to similarly solidify their role. Idi Amin, the brutal dictator who ruled Uganda during the 1970s, titled himself His Excellency President for Life. And Central African Republic's Jean-Bedel Bokassa crowned himself emperor in 1977.

The call for Jammeh's coronation is the latest in a series of controversial events that have marked his presidency. In 2007, the ruler claimed to have developed a cure for Aids and insisted that patients stop taking their antiretroviral medications so his cure could have an effect.
More recently, Jammeh's administration rounded up nearly 1 000 people last year in a witch hunt that spanned the nation of 2 million. Authorities forced the supposed witches to drink a hallucinogen that caused diarrhoea and vomiting. The unidentified liquid led to serious kidney problems, and two people died after the forced treatment, according to the international human rights group Amnesty International.
Sam Sarr, editor of the main opposition newspaper Foroyaa, says Jammeh's move to be crowned king will never work.

"It's unconstitutional," Sarr said. "According to the constitution, his position is an elected position. Sovereignty resides in the people."
Not that making Jammeh king would change much.
"The presidency is already like a monarchy," Sarr said. "As far as power is concerned, he has absolute power."
